Breeding crop plants with increased yield potential and improved tolerance to stressful
environments is critical for global food security. Drought stress (DS) adversely affects …

Drought, an ever-looming threat to agriculture, is of paramount concern in organic crop
production. The traditional methodologies employed for screening and selecting drought …

Abstract In wheat, meta-QTLs (MQTLs), ortho-MQTLs, and candidate genes (CGs) were
identified for nitrogen use efficiency and root system architecture. For this purpose, 1788 …

Background Drought is most likely the most significant abiotic stress affecting wheat yield.
The discovery of drought-tolerant genotypes is a promising strategy for dealing with the …

In this study, we investigated the genetic map** of root biomass and root/shoot ratio. We
utilized a large (n= 345) bi‐parental recombinant inbred line (RIL) population from the …

The root tissues play important roles in water and nutrient acquisition, environmental
adaptation, and plant development. In this study, a diversity panel of 388 wheat accessions …

Agro‐morphological traits play a significant role in the adaptation of wheat to diverse
agroecosystems. Genetic understanding of these traits is crucial to develop cultivars …

Wheat crop is subjected to various biotic and abiotic stresses, which affect crop productivity
and yield. Among various abiotic stresses, drought stress is a major problem considering the …

Roots are the main sensing organ, initiating multiple signaling pathways in response to
abiotic factors, including nutrients, drought, and salt stress. A focus on improving the root …

Identifying loci for root system architecture (RSA) traits and develo** available markers
are crucial for wheat breeding. In this study, RSA-related traits, including total root length …
